tired of squealing brakes
Good Afternoon, its gonna be hot in Chicago today.
I have 15,000 miles on my 2014 Spyder RT LTD and I'm getting a lot of squealing. I've been reading posts and talked to the dealer and it seems to be common on the RT.
I'm sure they are the original pads.
I would like more stopping power but I don't want to listen to the squealing. I blew the pads out with air and water and used brake cleaner and it stopped briefly. When I clean the front wheels good I take them off so that would be a good time to put the pink stuff on and maybe cut grooves in the pads and bevel the leading edge (on a rainy day of course otherwise I'm riding). It's embarrassing to ride around on a $30,000 bike that squeals. What has anyone else done. Thanks, Mike
My 14 RT did the same thing at 15k..
Took it to the car wash and blasted the he!! out of the calipers and it worked for a while. Took it back to the car wash and did it again and the squealing finally went away. Just did a 28k service and the OEM front pads are still good. Changed rear pads a 25k.
